    Housekeeping needs to be improved but not a big deal.

    The place is very bad with extremely high humidity and very high temperature inside the room because there is only one air conditioner in the living room and there is no air conditioner in the bedroom. Moreover the air conditioner does not work properly We stayed in the room for five hours, and the temperature and humidity remained the same very high. In addition, the bidet water pressure in the bathroom is very poor and weak!!! When we spoke to the hotel manager he offered us another room but it was the same situation with no difference.!! We kindly request to cancel the booking and refund the amount paid.

    Unfortunately, my experience at Palmalife Bodrum fell far below expectations. The room was in poor condition and clearly not properly cleaned before our arrival. There was visible dust by the bedside, the air conditioning vent was full of debris, and the TV unit was literally falling apart. When we raised these concerns with the staff, we were told they would be addressed, but no action was ever taken. The beds and pillows were incredibly uncomfortable, hard as stone. Getting a good night’s sleep was nearly impossible, and I honestly dreaded bedtime during the stay. The only redeeming aspect of the entire experience was the staff. They were polite, accommodating, and genuinely tried to make us feel welcome. Unfortunately, their efforts were undermined by the state of the facilities, which I simply cannot recommend. For the price and reputation, I expected far more. Sadly, I won’t be returning.

    I enjoyed the friendliness of the stuff

    I had an amazing stay at Palmalife Bodrum and would highly recommend it! The breakfast was absolutely excellent, with a wide variety of fresh and delicious options. My room was spacious, beautifully designed, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The breathtaking sea view from the room was the highlight of my trip, offering the perfect backdrop for relaxation. The staff were exceptional – always friendly, attentive, and ready to assist with any request. This hotel truly exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to return! 10/10 experience!

    Even though the reviews kept me a little skeptical, I was pleased to experience an amazing and relaxing stay here. As I understood from the team, they’ve recently changed management and they’re making big improvements to the property

    Great hotel, clean and cozy rooms, but the main attraction is the concept that they offer - They do health and relaxation tailor made treatments with clean organic products, cleansing juices, they organize your schedule with activities like mindfulness, yoga, walks. The spa is exactly as you imagine when you think about a wellness resort that you see in the movies. Unfortunately my stay was short but I will definitely come back for at least a week so I can have time to experience all the facilities.

    Breakfast was limited and you had to pay extra for basic things like coffee and an omelette. The upkeep of the facilities felt lacking e.g tiles falling off in the sauna, worn out sun beds by the pool and general wear and tear elsewhere. The pool could also have been cleaner. English menus alongside the Turkish versions would also be really helpful. The Wi-Fi was also pretty bad and only worked close to the main hotel (e.g. not by the pool, beach or in our bedroom). There were also a couple of times where we ordered room service and had to chase multiple times before receiving the order.

    The staff were super friendly (especially Kaya who went above and beyond to make sure we were looked after). The rooms were clean and the views from the hotel were great. The location was also super handy to get to other parts of Yalikavak.

    We booked our holiday as a last minute decision and, to be honest, we scared first. WE were worried after doing no research and seeing the bad reviews, but the atmosphere of the hotel , the staff, the management, everything was great. We were left with only what we were worried about in the first place. :) I recommend it to everyone with peace of mind and it is the place where i will come again with pleasure. Palmalife Hotel Spa

    Staying at the Palmalife Hotel was an extremely disappointing experience. The only positive aspect was the view from our room. The reception staff were unhelpful and seemed completely inexperienced in handling guests. The dining experience was even worse; the food at the hotel's restaurant was dreadful and left me with a stomachache after dinner. The overall management was chaotic and unprofessional. During checkout, the manager was yelling so loudly it added unnecessary stress to an already bad situation. The Italian food served was the worst I’ve ever had, clearly lacking authenticity and skill. This stay was a complete headache, and I will never return or recommend this hotel to anyone, especially not to international travelers.

    The hotel is very nice with a good location but the staff makes the experience horrible. Rude with a big communication gap making it hard to cooperate. Make sure to check the bill upon check out. Due to the staff I would rate this hotel a 2 star The only helpful staff is Mr Firat otherwise do not bother explaining anything to anyone

    location and only one staff memeber who went out of his way to assist- Mr Firat otherwise no one else was helpful
